    Default Mongols

    Hi I was playing one of my 1st games as Russia where I kept playing til the Mongol invasion and eventually after about 20-30 turns and a lot of losses I ended up destroying the Mongol faction. I thought that was the end so I could start disbanding my military to save up for the Timurid invasion. Next turn guess whos back the Mongols! (with 4 stacks of about a thousand). So I'm wondering when do the mongols go away?

    Look in the campaign_script file in your imperial_campaign folder. The date value is in years, and thus on a default timescale are date/2 in turns. That is when each wave comes in

    Playing on a different timescale and never get to see the new world or just wanting to change your timescale?

    Its nice when the Mongols go the opposite direction your empire is in. Then you can attack at your discretion, not theirs.

    A cheat, but a rather amusing way to deal with them is to give all of your land "over there," assuming its not your faction's homelands, to an enemy. Let them duke it out, and you can come in afterwards and carry the day. It sounds cheap, but it really is amusing.
    "Its just like the story of the grasshopper and the octopus. All year long the grasshopper kept burying acorns for winter while the octopus mooched off his girlfriend and watched TV. Then the winter came, and the grasshopper died, and the octopus ate all his acorns and also he got a racecar. Is any of this getting through to you?"

    Have a look through the pages, a few days ago there was another Mongol thread. All I can say is attack them, as soon as you're ready, sooner the better. The best battles are with them. Fortune favors the brave (but not the foolish, luck favors them).

    NOW.... ADVANCE !!! ATTACK !!!

    How do you read the dates there? I can't find it. I can only read which general appears in which wave.

    Read my tutorial on timescales then

    Basically the date in the campaign_script is the amount of years after the event mongol_invasion_warn is triggered that the wave appears.
